CANCELED DUE TO WEATHER Leaser Lake single or double loop hike (4 or 8 miles)Winter Loops around Leaser Lake
This is a relatively flat loop trail around Leaser Lake in Kempton. There are some rocky sections and a creek crossing or two, but most of this hike is on gentle terrain. After one loop, those who want a longer hike can repeat the loop in the reverse direction with me, and we may add a hill climb up the road behind the lake to add a little extra distance/elevation. Bring hydration and a snack and dress in layers.
PLEASE WEAR BLAZE ORANGE as a section of this trail borders state game lands and it is still deer season.
Rain or steady morning snow cancels hike.
The location is close to the much-loved Wanamakers General Store, which makes a great post-hike lunch stop for anyone interested.
